Hi I just guess what you want but maybe
rownames(log2.ratios) <-log2ratios$Clone changes rownames and then you could get your output (after getting rid of first column). If you just want an output to spreadsheet without row names column, look at ?write.table especially row.names option. regards Petr [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] napsal dne 29.11.2007 17:06:57: > Dear list, > I have a data frame like: > > > log2.ratios[1:3,1:4] > Clone a1 a2 a3 > 1 GS1-232B23 -0.0207500 0.17553833 0.21939333 > 2 RP11-82D16 -0.1896667 0.02645167 -0.03112333 > 3 RP11-62M23 -0.1761700 0.08214500 -0.04877000 > > how to make it to look like: > > > log2.ratios[1:3,1:4] > a1 a2 a3 > a4 > GS1-232B23 -0.0207500 0.17553833 0.21939333 0.0008 > RP11-82D16 -0.1896667 0.02645167 -0.03112333 0.007 > RP11-62M23 -0.1761700 0.08214500 -0.04877000 0.7666 > > I tried as.matrix(log2.ratios) and it seems it is not working. > > Thanks a lot! > > Allen > > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] > > ______________________________________________ > R-help@r-project.org mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help > PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html > and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
